XETV Channel 6 GM/VP leaving station after 9 years

General Manager and Vice President Richard Doutré Jones has left XETV Channel 6 after nearly nine years with the station.

Jones came to XETV from KBHK in San Francisco in 2001 when it was still a Fox affiliate. The station became San Diego’s CW network affiliate in 2008. Under Jones’ management, XETV has been a longtime leader in the Pacific Southwest Emmy Awards, winning 11 Emmys in 2009 and 14 awards in 2008.

Station management could not be reached for comment, and there is no word on Jones’ replacement.
